What Britney Spears and Drake have in common

(CNN)–Britney Spears’ newest single charged on to the Internet earlier than expected over the weekend, and the reaction has nearly brought the pop star to tears.

“I am truly overwhelmed and so grateful for all of your support,” Spears posted Sunday, as the new track “Work B***h” circulated among her fans. “I may have teared up a little….”

Spears is apparently feeling better about her hurried release — she’s been tweeting about the song rising on the iTunes’ charts — but if she’s up for commiseration, Drake knows how she feels. The rapper’s September 24 album, “Nothing Was the Same,” also leaked online this weekend.
